Northern Belle at Leisure – a fine collection of journeys onboard the stunning Northern Belle train. Fine dining combines with superb sightseeing for these day trips by train to some of Britain’s most-loved destinations.
We are offering vouchers for one to four people to enjoy a trip onboard this magnificent train. Each of the seven carriages has been beautifully restored to reflect the heyday of train travel during the ‘Belle Epoque’ era of the 1930s. Muralists marquetry and mosaic artists have created an elegant masterpiece that is truly stunning.
Departure stations for these leisure experiences are scheduled all over the Midlands and North from Gloucester and Cheltenham to Newcastle and Durham. It’s going to be an early start and a fairly late finish giving you plenty of time to luxuriate in the glamour of it all.
Destinations for the Northern Belle include seaside resorts and historic towns you love. Each itinerary includes time to explore at your leisure. Maybe a stroll along the seafront promenade? A visit to a museum perhaps? Or just have a wander around the old town taking in the magnificent architecture? It’s your time to enjoy as you please.
For many guests on these leisure trips it’s the onboard service that is the highlight. The exceptional care and attention afforded to passengers begins from the moment you board with a Bellini cocktail. This is followed by your delicious brunch and a mid-morning tea or coffee break whilst you travel.
After your leisurely afternoon enjoying your day-trip destination you’ll board the Northern Belle for your return train journey. This is the time to sit back and relax in your comfy armchair seat reflect on your day and prepare for the five course fine dining meal that will be served at your table during your trip. With an emphasis on seasonal British food the dishes are very much inspired by the views out of your carriage window as you traverse the countryside. Freshly prepared onboard by the Northern Belle’s chef team in their galley kitchen the quality is nothing short of excellent.
Northern Belle leisure experiences depart from a range of regional train stations between April and September. These day trips are incredibly popular so make sure you book well in advance to secure your reservation onboard this majestic luxury train service.
